this is always governor rendell, a tricky matt mat ticks, if you will. the question of education reform versus teachers unions, obviously a place for both. it's particularly tricky for the administration, given the fact they definitely need the support of labor going into november. >> i don't think this issue in the state of illinois will affect the electoral vote of illinois but it's an important issue because rahm emanuel is showing again, that democrats can stand up to unions when their demands are unreasonable. i hear it's not economics. the economics in this contract are good for the teachers. it's the demand that's untenable and the american people think that teachers like everybody else should be valued. >> what i'm guessing rahm is betting on the thing that will resolve this, the power of the chicago parents association. >> right. >> which i'm guessing is supremely unhappy day three of their schoolchildren, i think they're getting baby sat four hours a day and then let out into the, you know, to where. >> he happens to be right. teachers should b
